Proper Ger Nerr!
This could have been sides 3 and 4 of "Kimono My House" but I think that one got all the best tunes. Still some good stuff on this though, Track 3, "Reinforcements"  sounds like a footstomping Sweet or Mud track.  "Something For The Girl" sounds a lot like ‘This Town….’ “Achoo” sounds very familiar- like the Arctic Monkies or something modern (i.e. early 21th Century to those reading this in the "future") and has another slightly annoying ending that must have sounded awesome in the studio. I’ll blame Muff ( and/or cocaine. Probably.) In retrospect “Who Don’t Like Kids” could be seen as a rather unfortunate title, considering it was the Nonce-Friendly 70’s.

Record has been recently tested and is scratch free~ there are some minor scuffs / thin scratches on the surface but these do not affect the audio.
The outer sleeve has very few creases or dints and the corners are in good shape. The inner sleeve is crease and crinkle free with some slight foxing in one corner. The only thing really wrong with this item is the glue on the outer sleeve is coming adrift (see photo).
More glue issues with this one.
